Instruction Manuals
Learn how to make this fabulous, colourful zig-zag weave using paper! Great for greetings cards and for framed artworks for the wall.
Paper weaving is a fun and simple way to get to grips with the basics of woven structure, if you’re thinking of learning to weave on a loom.
Weaving can be beneficial for both kids and adults - it is a great way to practice problem solving, develop hand eye coordination, and exercise our fine motor skills.
This design is woven using the 3/3 twill structure, which is essentially ‘over three, under three, over three, under three’ and so on.
‘Twill’ is the structure that creates a diagonal pattern. At a certain point, you’ll be shown how to change the direction of your twill to create the zig zag. Once you’ve grasped this, you can decide where and when to change direction, how long to zig, and how long to zag, creating your own design.
The instruction manual is a clear and thorough photographic guide, taking you through each stage, step by step, row by row from start to finish.
You will need:
cutting board
craft knife
metal ruler
a variety of coloured paper or card
double sided adhesive tape
cellotape
scissors
